Christmas at Our House...

All of the images are of our original woodwork or craft work. As you can see the little Santa with Rudolf and sleigh is very tiny as is the graduated sizes of Reindeer from tree to tree that Bill has cut out on the scrollsaw. None of these decorations are new. They are all ones we have had through the years. The beautiful Angel is actually a tree topper for our large tree that we did not put up this year but is none the less beautiful by herself on the table. I am featuring the fabric nativity figures again so that you can see more detail. The wooden candle with the flame is one of my favorites that Bill made from a purchased pattern.

Please visit my Kerrie's Kraft 3 site @ http://kerrieskrafts3.blogspot.com/ to see the post for today of a beautiful and fun Advent calendar for you to make and also directions for a fun candy wreath you can make on a coat hanger. Pattern for the calendar is included and can be printed out.

Thanks for looking and do come again and again!

This a pic of our "Grand-Dog", Captain Button who would rather be camping than in the cold weather-ha!

Handmade decorations and gifts are my very favorites. The time and love that goes into them can never be duplicated with store bought ones, and the memories they make....priceless! Yours are all wonderful and I still love the Fabric Nativity....thanks for showing it again.
